The cottage was in a great location with so many p great places to visit within an hrs drive. The cottage itself was clean with some lovely features but unfortunately it also had faults. The kitchen lacked work space for serving up meals and was so dark we had to keep the light on day and night,also the lounge was lovely and spacious one of the seats was broken. There was a lovely big bay window but unfortunately a view of out buildings was not my cuo of tea
